Just to make the point clear ([[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Tropers/Mikumo as the original writer of this page]]), ShinyMidnightBlack is a trope refering majoritally to colour (as in hair colour or the colour of an object or animal). It is meant to represent hair colour that is darker than a brunette (hence why its described as a step beyond Brunette in the description summary) specifically black coloured hair, regardless of whether it is natural or fake. There wasn\'t a trope on the wiki specifically for BLACK hair as opposed to BROWN and the BrainyBrunette description tended to describe a personality rather than colour unlike examples for RED hair and BLONDE hair (the latter even has a sub-page for White-blonde hair) ShinyMidnightBlack as a trope is a common description for romantic interests in some novel genres though there its often referred to as something else, such as JET-BLACK, RAVEN-BLACK, GLOSSY-BLACK, BLUE-BLACK, PURPLE-BLACK etc. Hence why hair described as jet-black, raven etc all come under this trope. The point being remarked on is the richness of a particular hue/shade of black hair, often accompanied by a description of blue highlights, though this is sometimes not always the case. Aloofness of character, intelligence level etc are all secondary characteristics to what is a trope primarily focused on describing a shade of hair colour.

When focusing SPECIFICALLY on the \\\'\\\'character type\\\'\\\' that ShinyMidnightBlack tends to be associated with; the trope is TallDarkandBishoujo / TallDarkAndHandsome / TallDarkAndSnarky. When focusing SPECIFICALLY on the physical attributes often paired with ShinyMidnightBlack, then the trope is RavenHairIvorySkin, or in subversions of the trope EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette.
